The Washington event will take place at 10:30 a.m. Nov. 19, according to a news release.

The waysides, located on the Mall within the historic footprint of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad station, will interpret the shooting of Garfield inside the station and his lasting contributions as a public servant, the release stated.

The assassination site is the only one of the four presidential assassination sites not currently identified and interpreted.

Over the past year, National Park Service employees at each park have worked with noted historians, authors, and filmmakers to develop the new interpretive panels, the release stated.

They waysides will be installed on the National Mall just south of the National Gallery of Art’s West Building’s south entrance. The National Gallery of Art is located on the site of the former Baltimore and Potomac train station.

Garfield was born in Orange Township (now Moreland Hills) on Nov. 19, 1831, so this wayside unveiling will take place on his 187th birthday.

Garfield had been president just four months before being shot by assassin Charles Guiteau on July 2, 1881. Garfield lingered for more than two months after the shooting, dying of infection at age 49 on Sept. 19, 1881.

“We’re thrilled these wayside panels will be going up to interpret President Garfield’s assassination,” said Todd Arrington, site manager of James A. Garfield National Historic Site. “President Garfield’s reputation among the public and scholars has been rising over the past several years, thanks in large part to many of the people that helped us plan these waysides.

"Having millions of National Mall visitors walk by them each year will surely open more eyes to the great potential that was lost when Garfield died.”
